About Experience Ibogaine
Experience Ibogaine uses ibogaine-assisted treatment to help clients detox from substances and heal from mental health conditions. Their medically monitored ibogaine experience offers a more comfortable withdrawal experience, sometimes with no cravings or side effects. Their medical director provides decades of experience in ibogaine-assisted treatment and emergency medicine. Combined, their medical staff bring 50 years of experience in ibogaine treatment.
Experience Ibogaine begins treatment with a thorough medical assessment. This includes a full blood lab, urinalysis, and testing of the heart and liver to make sure each client is physically ready for treatment. Once ready, Experience Ibogaine provides a small test dose of ibogaine before beginning the full flood dose. Typically, the experience of ibogaine lasts 8-12 hours. Clients stay under medical observation in a private room during the experience.
After the psychedelic effects wear off, clients can start group and 1:1 therapy. Workshops help clients see the effects of their decisions, and how they can maintain their sobriety after treatment at Experience Ibogaine. Other 1:1 coaching sessions help clients plan for their next steps in treatment. On average, clients stay at Experience Ibogaine for 7 days, though they can extend or shorten their time.
Experience Ibogaine treats just 2-3 clients at a time for a small client-to-staff ratio. Clients can enjoy private rooms, an on-site chef who cooks to their preferences, and a rooftop with views of the Pacific Ocean. To help with detox, Experience Ibogaine also provides a sauna and swimming pool. They also pick clients up from San Diego’s airport before driving them into Mexico.

Experience Ibogaine offers a comprehensive detox experience, starting with physical tests to help determine ibogaine’s effectiveness. They use advanced medical equipment to monitor the process. Their doctors and nurses oversee the process too, and clients’ whole stay at Experience Ibogaine. Once they’re able, clients begin coaching and workshops to plan their next steps in treatment and prepare for what’s to come.
Once administered, clients experience 3 distinct phases of ibogaine treatment. These include the acute phase, reflective phase, and residual phase. Each phase offers different benefits, like helping clients address past traumas, reducing withdrawal symptoms, and reshaping substance-damaged communications systems in the brain. Clients may also have a spiritual experience with ibogaine, which can enhance their success.
Experience Ibogaine provides group and individual workshops and coaching sessions. Their first group session addresses and answers questions about ibogaine. Then, after their ibogaine session, clients re-group to formalize new plans for their future and workshop new decision-making skills. A final 1:1 session prepares clients for the next steps in treatment, and helps them connect with further care and begin the treatment they need.
Experience Ibogaine provides airport pickups from the nearby San Diego airport. With this service, clients can seamlessly cross the border into Mexico. Clients notably don’t need a passport to enter Mexico from the San Ysidro border. A photo ID or birth certificate serves as proper identification. Once in Mexico, all United States citizens can’t be denied re-entry into the States.
